     The two most fundamental energies in our birth chart are the Sun and the Moon. While the Sun is the most yang, projective, giving us our sense of individual self and purpose, the Moon is the most yin, receptive, providing us with the application of our purpose. The Sun is the light and life of our system. The Moon being the closest heavenly body to us controls the rhythm of the sea and all its creatures as well as the flow of blood in the human body. As the Moon distributes the light of the Sun each night, we experience this partnership and are able to understand their relationship in forming the personality of the human being.

     Each night a different amount of light is given off by the Moon according to its changing relationship with the Sun. Within an approximate twenty-eight day cycle the Moon will have passed through eight phases, each phase lasting about forty-five degrees or three and a half days. These phases each have their own unique characteristics which influence all life on the planet. The first phase is the New Moon at which time no light is emanating from its surface. Beginning at zero degrees it will have completed its cycle at three hundred and sixty degrees.

    One way to describe these phases is to use the analogy of the plant.

     At the New Moon the seed is in the ground preparing for germination. It is implanted in a new beginning.

     In the early degrees of the Crescent Phase, the sprout is drawn up from the earth by the initial impulses of light. During the remaining stages of the Crescent Phase the plant goes through a strengthening process, mobilizing its energies against the elements of nature.

     When the First Quarter comes about, the plant has passed the initial stages of survival and is now sending down roots. By firmly anchoring its life force, the plant is able to concentrate its energies in the growth of stems and leaves with the tiny buds appearing by the beginning of the Gibbous Phase.

     During the Gibbous Phase the plant is focusing on the reason for its existence. By ridding itself of everything superfluous, the culmination of its entire past from its beginning is brought to the moment of its achievement by coming into bloom.

     The phase of the Full Moon is the completion. The work has been done and the gardener can stand back and assess his efforts. As the Full Moon progresses through its forty-five degrees the flower becomes the fruit.

     The Disseminating phase is the harvest. The purpose of the plant is to now give back to the earth, to those who brought it into being and to nurture others.

     By the time the Third Quarter comes around, the harvest is over, the abundance has been shared and what is left in the fields begins to decompose. The cycle is beginning to end.

     During the Balsamic Phase the seed capsule is buried underground. It is clear that what was, no longer exists in its original form. This is the time of transition. The light of the Moon has grown very dim and by the end of this phase will have disappeared into darkness.

     When we are born we come in under the influence of one of the Moon's phases. The degree will pinpoint its intensity.

NEW MOON

     When a person is born under the influence of the New Moon it is thought that in terms of reincarnation, this person has been born into the first incarnation of an eight fold sequence. This person possesses a quality of spontaneity, thus, planning ahead is not always met with success. They view life as a grand adventure with unlimited possibilities. Living in the moment, the past is not important to them. Being born when the Moon sheds no light, they have come to learn to respond instinctually and to act on intuition. They are able to navigate without maps and arrive at their destination with time to spare. They are often criticized for being overly self involved, but there is a need for them to learn about who they are and to project it into the world.

              Initial urge   Instinct   Projection

CRESCENT

     A key word for the Crescent Phase is breakthrough. It is a time when what was begun during the New Moon is carried forward. It is a time of struggle because it often has to wrestle with the ghosts of the past which were in effect before the new cycle began. This new identity needs to overcome old standards, attitudes and structures in order to become fully functional as a whole and free individual. People born during a Crescent Moon often find themselves emotionally tied to the past. They may be drawn to habitual behaviors, wanting to stay within their comfort zones, feeling the need for security. They can be vulnerable to emotional blackmail, falling victim to those who want to "keep them the way they are", not supportive of their growth. Crescent Moon types may find it difficult to leave home until well into adulthood. It is imperative that they establish their life force in independence. It is important for them to understand that the first step is the hardest, but that once it is taken new opportunities will open up. Their final challenge is to take those opportunities and act on them.

              Activation   Striving   Future

FIRST QUARTER

     The First Quarter Moon can be referred to as "crisis in action". It is a time in which the challenge is to manage the energy which is released by crisis and then to restructure it into its new form. People born during this phase are able to rise to the occasion of any emergency. They are able to make split second decisions and act on them. They have the ability to tear down old structures and to recreate new ones. They are the pioneers, the trail blazers, the hero and the heroine. It is important not to unconsciously create havoc in their lives just for the sake of excitement even though the crazier it gets, the better they get. It is likely they will create conflict in the lives of those entrenched in the status quo. You may find them working in emergency rooms and driving ambulances.

              Clearing   Action   Building

GIBBOUS

     Those born during the Gibbous Phase have an innate desire for perfection. Having sharp, analytical minds, they have a need to understand. Looking at a subject from all angles, they experience sheer joy when delving into the core of the matter. Bringing things to the essence of their being, the truth will be revealed. They live their lives in anxious expectation augmented by the breath of the coming revelation. Children born at this time will not be happy with the answers, they will want to know why and how the answer came about. Gibbous Moon people make good apprentices as their goal is to learn all they can and become as good as they can get.

FULL MOON

     The Full Moon brings about the completion of all the hard work that came before it. It is the time in which the structure having attained perfection experiences the urge to become infused with meaning and purpose, the breath of life. It is time when all that was instinctual becomes deliberate action, all that was felt before will now be made visible. The ideals are to be realized, brought forth into the world for all to have. It is the debut. People born under the Full Moon are idealists. They may spend a lot of time searching for belief systems that they can relate to. Relationships are important to them and they need to be fully conscious of the effects their words and actions have on others. It is hard for them to find the ideal relationship in this material world and they will often turn to religion or an ideal cause. In looking for the right relationship, one needs to proceed through the clarity of the light of consciousness and not get caught up in the emotional bog of sheer desire.

     Perfection   Completion   Conscious   Illumination

DISSEMINATING

     The Disseminating Phase of the Moon is the second phase of conscious operation. That which came into completion at the Full Moon is ready to be distributed now. People born during this phase are natural communicators. They are what they believe and their purpose is to spread it to the world. They share and communicate information acquired from their own experience. They are the teachers and philosophers. If they have no message to share they can become despondent. It is their lesson to realize that they are not responsible as to whether the message is received or not. It is not the role of everyone else to act on what they say, but it is the role of the person born in the Disseminating Phase to say it. They make good publicists and reporters as long as they believe in what they are saying.

              Imparting   Convey   Awareness

LAST QUARTER

     The key word for the Last Quarter is readjustment. It is the hardest to identify as many of its characteristics are hidden. As the First Quarter experiences "crisis in action", the Third Quarter experiences "crisis in consciousness". Old systems and values are becoming useless. It is hard for people born at this time to relate to life in the here and now. They often appear to be living in a world of their own, when in actuality they are going through an internal process of reorientation. They will present to the world an acceptable face as they are quietly developing on the inside. At the point when their own internal self has been completed, a brand new, fully developed person emerges. This butterfly is quite different from the caterpillar it had been, and is quite the surprise to those who thought they "knew" them. These people need the time and space to find themselves. If pressured to conform, they may revolt causing others to regard them as uncooperative and rebellious. As children, they require a lot of "alone" time and may need more rest than others as they process much in their sleep and in meditative states.

BALSAMIC

     The Balsamic Phase is the last phase of the Moon's cycle. This is the time of adjustment from one cycle to another. It is the bridge between the past and the future. People born at this time are finishing an eight phase cycle of lifetimes. Therefore, this lifetime is a very karmic one. There is a pattern of very intense, all-consuming although short term relationships with people from the past including other lifetimes. These karmic ties are in need of resolution before continuing on into the next new cycle. These people often have pronounced psychic abilities. They are the visionaries seeing years ahead of their times. As children they often feel apart from their peers; they are loners. Balsamic Moon people are able to take the true meaning of a situation, distill it into its wisdom essence and plant it into the awareness of others. They are the gurus. Their job is the transmission of essential knowledge which will germinate at the next level during the next Lunation Cycle.

THE PROGRESSED PHASES

     The progressed lunation cycle lasts for approximately twenty-eight years. This is in effect a macrocosmic illustration of the microcosmic monthly lunar cycle.

     During a progressed New Moon people instinctively begin a new phase of their lives.

     As in all new beginnings, the Crescent Phase will bring about challenges during the struggle forward in this new enterprise. Old friends may fall away, while new opportunities will present themselves, helping them get on with the business at hand. Sometimes they will feel as though they are moving in blind faith as old values and outmoded systems fall to the wayside, being replaced by new approaches acquired through inspiration.

     The progressed Third Quarter presents a time of action in which the building stage is in full force. At the onset of this phase, sometimes still without tangible form, one instinctively forges ahead in a creatively progressive mode, until towards the end of the three and a half year period there is a sense of being grounded in the process now having something to work with.

     The progressed Gibbous Phase brings about the stage of refinement. The techniques of the process which was begun is perfected now and fine tuned during this time.

     The crucial stage comes with the phase of the progressed Full Moon. It is during this time that the fruits of ones labor are made obvious. The structure has been built and it is time to find the meaning, purpose and content of its creation. If one doesn't allow for a change in the way of operations from here on, the structure usually breaks down, for it is useless without a purpose. This time usually marks a turning point in ones life in which he realizes that he must gradually disengage from the way he has been doing things for the next fifteen years.

     During a progressed Disseminating Phase, one is living out ones values accumulated through the period of growth prior to the progressed Full Moon.

     When the progressed Third Quarter comes around feelings of dissatisfaction with the way things are begin to emerge. Perhaps a lack of interest in a once compatible system of living. Change is in the air although it is not in ones consciousness as of yet. Things just don't fit the way they used to and may feel like they are already becoming a part of the past.

     The progressed Balsamic Phase is the time when one begins to sense the future and dedicates themselves to it. It is the transiting ending to all that was. Old issues and loose ends may come for review. As this phase progresses it becomes a time of enforced isolationism. One may feel like they are going crazy as it is hard for them to identify with things in the so called real world. They may think they have made a mistake, that there must be something wrong with them. Try as they may , they just can't seem to get with the program. It is at this time that one needs to understand that those things that are no longer valid or have passed away had a purpose, and that part of the fulfillment of that purpose was to make way for what is to be born. The Balsamic time is a time of meditation, of inner searching. It is a time of transition from DOING to BEING. People need to realize that it is O.K. to do nothing, to become receptive and allowing. People often retire during a progressed Balsamic Moon and sometimes pass on from physical life.

YOUR NATAL PHASE

Last Quarter Phase:

     Julia, you were born during the Third, or the Last Quarter Phase of the Lunar Cycle.

     Just as it sounds, this is a time of endings, when the energy of the Moon is winding down towards the Balsamic Phase. This Phase has been characterized as a "crisis in consciousness." As the First Quarter Phase is described as a "crisis in action," the external organization of energy, creating a strong foundation to build upon, the "crisis in consciousness" is an internalized re-organization of energy.

     It is a time of turning away from what has been, reflecting feelings of discontent towards those passions characteristic of the times you found it hard to relate to the status quo as a child. Perhaps you found yourself responding to the enthusiasm of the status quo with a not enthusiastic "this is it?" attitude. Always standing a little apart from your peers, you had your own internal processes at work guiding and directing you in life. You may have needed a lot of alone time. Perhaps you needed more rest as a child. Your way of processing is through the unconscious state. Naps as a child would have helped you sort life out, and meditation as an adult will give you the internal clarity needed to separate from the day to day hecticness so prevalent in the physical world.

     You can be a master of the game, wearing the appropriate mask of participation. But what others may see isn't necessarily what they get. All the time, you are undergoing ideological transformation. As the butterfly suddenly appears from its chrysalis, you to will emerge entirely new, much to the amazement of all who thought they new you quite well.

     Dreams are a vehicle for understand your internal process. Keeping a dream journal and reading your story as it unfolds can bring what is unconscious, to the light of understanding.

YOUR PROGRESSED PHASE

     Your progressed Lunar Phase now is in the last third of the New Moon Phase. Each phase lasts about 3 1/2 years, so the next phase will begin soon.

     A decisively new direction has come about in your life. This can be an emotionally stimulating time in which you feel the urge to initiate and project, even if you are not quite clear about what you are projecting. Much of the energy in your life can have a magical quality to it as things are just automatically going in a certain direction. It is important to be intuitive at this time and allow the natural course to show you the way to the next step.

     As this phase progresses into the Crescent Phase this new venture in energy will become more manifest in tangibility with an awareness that something new is trying to come to life.
